Hello chicken keepers,
I hope all your chooks had a feathered and fabulous holiday season! We are back to normal schedule here at the Backyard Chicken Coops office and I’m ready to take another peck at a brilliant breed of chook. Without further ado, let’s have a cluck about the brilliant and beautiful Barnevelder chicken breed!
The Barnevelder Chicken Breed
Barnevelders are a stunning and sweet chicken breed originating from the Netherlands. These cool, calm and collected chooks are laid back beauties that lay bewitching dark brown eggs about 200 times a year. Barnevelder chickens are adorned with fanciful double laced black, partridge, silver or white plumage but don’t let their decorative derrieres distract you, these chooks are hardy and friendly beyond measure. The Barnevelder chicken breed is quiet, docile and hardy and they make an affectionate and adorable backyard bird.
